The driver's side T-top on my GN shattered twice. First time it was because someone smashed it to gain entry to the car to steal it. Stupid thief had to sit in glass. If he took another 3 seconds with a coat hanger he could've gotten in it easily.
Second time was just last year when I forgot to latch it. Evidently it takes 72.3 MPH of wind to lift the top. And then they literally take flight. The sunscreen separates like the tanks on the space shuttle, and the top shatters in an enormous explosion of glass when it hits the highway. It's quite spectacular.
GM didn't want to fix it either time. Bastages.
